The Boss Shepherd Blow Out.

The friends and admirers of Boss Shep-
herd who have arranged to have big pa
rade and a grand demonstration in Wash
ington in his honor tomorrow are not meet
ing with as much encouragement as they
expected. They thought they would have
no trouble in raising $4,000 or $4,000 to
meet the expenses of the proposed recep-
ton, but the shopkeepers and other bust
ness men have not responded literally. In
fact, the most of them have refused to con-
tribute a cent. Apparently they are not
anxious to buy champagne for Shepherds
old cronies and their friends The commit
tees which have charge of the re
ception have succeeded in raising
5000, chiefly among their own members,
and if they want any more they will have
to contribute it themselves. The pro-
gramme includes a parade of the working
men of the District From present indica-
tions, however, that part of it will have to
be omitted. The workingmen have been
looking up Shepherds record when he was
boss of the District, and have discovered
that he was the oppressOr rather than the
friend of men of their class. They have,
therefore, given notice that they will not
permit themselves to be dragged at the
wheels of his triumphal car.
1t is question whether Shepherd is emit
tied to any special honor from the people of
Washington. 1t is true that the street i'm
provements and the magnificent shade trees
are largely due to his efforts. He is also
entitled to much of the credit for the beauty
of the parks. but it has not yet been salts
factorily settled whether be wasn't at
the head of "A strong ring, when he
was the leading politician of the District,
which robbed the people under the forms of
law. 1t is certain that Congress broke up
the existing District government because it
was SO VIGOROUSLY corrupt and that Shep-
herd left Washington under cloud. If he
were condemned unjustly, the injury that
was done him ought to be repaired, hut be-
fore he is given the keys of the city and no
ored as a public benefactor, it ought to be
clearly shown that the charges that were
lodged against him, and pressed VITA Wig
in the days of the District government,
were untrue.

The attempt of New York syndicate,
which has purchased a large body of land
in Gadsden county, Florida, to inaugurate
the growing of tobacco on large scale,
will be watched with great deal of in
terest. Much of the land of Florida is said
to be peculiarly adapted to the growth of a
tobacco suitable for cigar wrappers. and
this is the kind of leaf which is scarcest and
brings the highest price. In spite of a
heavy duty, many millions of
pounds are imported annually
from Sumatra. The quality of the Florida
leaf is evidenced by the fact that one Gads-
den county farmer this year sold his crop
for 30c. per pound, which is almost three
times the average price of Virginia tobacco
1t may be that in this product Florida will
find as great source of income as in oranges
aud other fruits. 1t is new and valuable
resource added to those of a State already
rich in them.

Some of the Republican papers are angry
at the dismissal OF a cousin of the late Presi-
dent Arthur's wife from Washington clerk
ship because, on account of age, and bad
health he was no longer able to perform
the duties of his place. Perhaps they would
favor pension law to cover such cases,
but they would have very few of the people
with them. Until such a law is passed.
however, the government is entitled to ser
vice for all the money it pays out, and when
man cannot render it he ought to be put
out. 1t is not claimed that the dismissal
in this case was caused by partisan feeling,
as the man is a Democrat.

because she saw that he had ceased to
love her. Her beauty had faded, her
former high spirits had given place to a
dull lassitude. What had caused this
change? Functional arrangement; she
was suffering from those ailments peculiar
to her sex. And so their two young lives
drifted apart How needless, how cruel!
Had she taken Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre-

to health and happiness. If any lady

Plucky Sadie Smith,

At the speechmaking in Gettysburg,
after the arrival Of Pickett's division,
Col. William r. Aylett, who succeeded
Gen. Armistead as commander of the
brigade upon the death of Armistead,
was chosen to respond in behalf OF
Virginia to Pennsylvania welcome.
In the course of his eloquent grafton
he gave our town more than ordinary
notoriety in that part of his speech re-
ferring to the patriotic women of the
war. The following are his remarks:
But while speaking of the deeds
and glOries of our men, let not the
deeds OF our women be forgotten.
Why, the bravest woman / ever saw
was Pennsylvania girl, who detied
Pickett's whole division while we
marched through little town called
Greencastle. She had United States
flag as an apron, which she detiantly
waved up and down as our columns
passed by her, and dared us to take it
from her. And there was not one
corps who dared to do so. Struck by
her courage and loyalty, Pickett, with
hat off, gave her military salute, my
regiment presented arms, and we
cheered her with good, old-fashiOned
Rebel yell, which some of you boys
here have doubtless heard. God bless
the true and brave little woman, and
she was as lovely as she was brave.
Would that she were here to-day that
/ might, in admiration of her pluck
and truth, grasp the hand of that
splendid and glorious type of Ameri-
can womanhoOd She deserves place
by the side of those Carthagenian
maidens who cut off their tresses as
bowstrings to send their lovers arrows
Kissing to the Roman heart!'
Numerous have been the comments
as to who the heroic woman was, and
as it is matter of much interest the
press has done all possible to find out
and place the credit where it is due.
The lady was Miss Sadie Smith, Il
daughter of our former townsman, Ja-
cob r. Smith, who afterward married
MIR. Sibbett and removed to Youngs-
town, o., but who is now dead

Everybody buys Opera-glasses,
said dealer in response to IN inquiry,
''church members, ministers, lawyers
and mechanics. Although a luxury,
they are daily coming into more gen
eral use. One reason is the great de-
crease in price since gold came down to
level with other money, or other
money rose to level with gold For
instance, an Opera-glass that costs
about SO now, during the war would
have cost $l2 or more"
''HOw is that?"
1.-The main reason is that all opera
glasses are made abroad, in France or
Vienna, by wOrkmen who grind lenses

The tariff imposes n duty of As pen

this means 60 per cent, for the com

''Who purchase opera glasses most

"Women, of course The opera
